The topic is sodium intake with Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis, and i have a personal experience with this, so this is kind of a so.

I’m  happy to share this with you. I’m kind of interested to share this with  you. So there was there’s, a study that came out a couple years ago and  um. They they had 49 healthy people who they put on a low salt diet.

Then  they put them on a high salt diet, and then they followed that by a  high salt diet with potassium supplementation. So here’s. The deal 100  years ago, who knows maybe 60 years ago or or more, are potassium and  and and and and sodium all right, salt.

They balance each other  and they and they work to balance each of your electrolytes and they’re  like hugely important to your physiology. You have too much salt. Maybe  your blood pressure goes up. Maybe you get bloated there’s.

A lot  of bad things about too much salt okay, so they did a study and they  found, and then they measured blood chemistry relative to um white blood  cells, and they found that this one white blood cell called il17a.

It  just means that this is a blood cell. It’s, a white blood cell that  goes up when a person gets inflammation. Okay, it’s. An inflammatory  white blood cell would go up significantly in the blood after you have  high salt.

Now let me go back, i skipped over myself. So, like 60  to 100 years ago, the ratio was sodium, uh was like potassium eight,  sodium one uh and – and this was probably before processed foods and  restaurants got popular and all that type of stuff, because now the  ratio is 18 sodium to one potassium.

Did you get that okay, normal  potassium, before processed foods, all restaurants, salt, all that type  of stuff and everything potassium? Eight sodium one: proper ratio um?  Now it’s. Salt 18, potassium one! So that’s, bad! It’s, particularly bad  for Hashimoto’s.

Patients. What we found was that um, when they  expose these folks to potassium so people who so the people who took  salt, they had a they ended up. Taking a high salt meal and their sodium  went up even more when they were exposed to seven days of  supplementation.
